"Let's go inside first and talk about it then!"
Xuanyuan Peng looked at Bai Shi tenderly and led her into the hunting grounds.
Xuanyuan Peng would even deliberately lag behind and walk alongside Bai Shi, completely disregarding the gazes of others.
Of course, all the civil and military officials were quite sensible, lowering their heads and pretending not to see anything.
Xuanyuan Zhan led Su Xuening and followed them at a distance.
As the two passed by Xuan Yuan Yu, Xuan Yuan Yu suddenly stretched out a foot to block Xuan Yuan Zhan's path.
Xuan Yuanzhan caught a glimpse of Xuan Yuanyu's foot, but instead of giving way, he stomped on it heavily.
"Xuanyuan Zhan!" Xuanyuan Yu jumped up in pain instantly!
Xuanyuan Yu's shout startled the others, and even Xuanyuan Peng turned around to look at him.
Xuanyuan Yu didn't want to cause trouble today, so he just stared coldly at Xuanyuan Zhan and said, "Watch where you're going."
Seeing that Xuanyuan Peng had noticed them, Xuanyuan Duo quickly stepped forward to smooth things over: "Yes, Xuanyuan Zhan, you stepped on Lao San's foot. Watch where you're going!"
Xuan Yuanzhan was too lazy to watch their act and didn't want to explain anything further, so he took Su Xuening's hand and left.
Xuanyuan Yu watched the two figures walking hand in hand from behind, and was once again driven mad with jealousy!
Xuanyuan Duo saw through Xuanyuan Yu's thoughts and patted his shoulder reassuringly.
Xuan Yuanzhi, however, sneered. He had coveted her since childhood, guarding her with all his might, thinking she would definitely be his woman. In the end, she became the princess consort of his mortal enemy, Xuan Yuanzhan. No man could accept this!
Therefore, there will definitely be more and more of these great shows in the future!
Of course, this is also his opportunity!
If anyone were to turn around and look at Xuan Yuanzhi at this moment, they would clearly see ambition in his eyes.
Xuanyuan Peng led Bai Shi to the camp. There was an open space on the east side of the hunting grounds, which had been built into a camp for the emperor, his concubines, and other high-ranking officials to rest, change clothes, and even hold a bonfire party after a successful hunt.
"Your Majesty, the eagles are ready," Zong Jiu reported, stepping forward with a bow and arrows in hand.
"Then let's release the hawk!"
At Xuan Yuanpeng's command, Zong Jiu immediately shouted, "Release the hawks!"
Soon, an eagle was released and took flight.
Xuanyuan Peng drew his bow and nocked an arrow, waiting for the eagle to reach its highest point before releasing the arrow.
"Whoosh!" The arrow seemed to pierce through the clouds and disappear.
Before long, an eagle fell from the clouds.
"good!"
"Your Majesty has excellent archery skills!"
"His Majesty is as valiant as ever!"
When the ministers saw that Xuanyuan Peng had shot down the eagle, they all rushed forward to flatter him.
Xuanyuan Peng looked at Bai Shi as if seeking credit. Bai Shi seemed surprised by Xuanyuan Peng's archery skills and gave him a slight smile.
When Bai Shi watched Xuan Yuanpeng shoot an arrow, he thought of Xuan Yuankun.
His archery skills were also excellent. Every time there was a hunt like this, the late emperor would have Xuanyuan Kun shoot eagles for him, and at that time he would also become the object of everyone's flattery.
Like Xuanyuan Peng, he would look at her smugly after shooting the eagle, as if he wanted to take credit for her.
Previously, her attention was only on Xuan Yuan Kun, and she never knew that Xuan Yuan Peng's archery skills were also so good.
Xuanyuan Peng dismissed the ministers and walked to Bai Shi's side, saying, "Would you like to join the game?"
Bai Shi didn't like hunting occasions, but considering their plans, she still agreed: "Okay!"
Xuanyuan Peng was delighted and led Bai Shi into the hunting grounds. Before leaving, he reminded Xuanyuan Zhan, "You can go in and have some fun, but don't go hunting."
"Um."
Only after Xuan Yuanzhan responded did Xuan Yuanpeng feel relieved enough to take Bai Shi to the hunting grounds.
Xuanyuan Zhan also brought Su Xuening into the hunting ground.
Su Xuening originally wanted to ride a horse by herself, but Xuan Yuanzhan was worried. Su Xuening thought that today would not be peaceful, so she agreed and rode with him.
Xuanyuan Zhan held the reins and whispered in her ear, "Remember to stay by my side no matter what happens."
Su Xuening frowned and said worriedly, "Let's go with Mother. I'm a little worried about her."
Su Xuening now regrets bringing her mother along when she hired the assassins. What if those assassins were blind and targeted her mother? That would be terrible.
"Don't worry, Xuanyuan Peng will protect her." Xuanyuan Zhan wasn't worried at all.
If Xuanyuan Peng didn't even have this much ability, he wouldn't be fit to sit on the throne.
Moreover, he had also arranged for secret guards around his mother, who would appear if danger arose.
Upon hearing this, Su Xuening relaxed a bit, but then became tense about the assassins again.
“You mean them…” Su Xuening turned her head to say something, but she didn’t expect Xuan Yuanzhan to be so close to her that when she turned her head, her face was pressed against his.
Su Xuening froze instantly, her mind went blank, and she forgot what she wanted to say.
Xuanyuan Zhan was also stunned, his body stiffening as he couldn't bear to leave her sweet kiss, even though it was just an unintentional kiss through the veil.
Xuan Yuan Yu, who was following far behind them, was already insanely jealous when he saw the two riding together. Now, seeing Su Xue Ning take the initiative to kiss Xuan Yuan Zhan, he went even crazier.
He kicked the horse's belly hard and charged over like a madman, pulling Su Xuening down with one hand.
Xuan Yuan Yu's sudden action startled Su Xue Ning so much that her soul almost left her body. In the instant her identity was exposed, she instinctively protected her lower abdomen.
Xuan Yuanzhan was completely immersed in Su Xuening's sweet kiss, and he did not expect Xuan Yuanyu to be so crazy and suddenly pull Su Xuening away. By the time he reacted, Su Xuening had already fallen, and he immediately flew over to catch her.
"Boom!" Su Xuening fell to the ground with her eyes tightly closed, but she did not feel any pain.
She suddenly opened her eyes and realized that Xuan Yuanzhan had actually used her as a scapegoat.
Upon smelling the blood, Su Xuening suddenly remembered something and immediately got up to look at Xuan Yuanzhan's wound. Sure enough, she saw that his white robe was stained with a large patch of blood.
Su Xuening felt sorry for Xuan Yuanzhan and tried to take off his clothes, but Xuan Yuanzhan grabbed her hand and gently coaxed her, "It's okay."
"Your Highness..." Seeing that he was pale but still trying to comfort her, Su Xuening's eyes immediately reddened.
"Your Highness!" Hang Yuqing and the others saw that Xuan Yuanzhan was injured and immediately wanted to come over to treat him.
"I'm fine." Xuan Yuanzhan refused Hang Yuqing and the others' offer of medical treatment, fearing it would delay the assassins from killing them.
"But..." Hang Yuqing and the others looked at his clothes, which were stained with blood, and they were somewhat embarrassed.
With so much blood lost, the wound must have reopened; how can it not be treated!
Seeing that Xuan Yuanzhan had lost so much blood, Xuan Yuanyu was afraid that he would complain to Xuan Yuanpeng, so he pulled on the reins, turned his horse around, and ran away.
Xuanyuan Zhan narrowed his eyes coldly, and while the horse was running at full speed, he picked up a pebble from the ground and flicked it away.
The horse's front hooves buckled, and Xuanyuan Yu was instantly thrown out, crashing heavily to the ground with a "thud"!
